DC vacation

We went to DC for our 4th of July vacation. The night before our trip a powerful thunderstorm came through and knocked out power to the region. The girls didn't mind.

Ever heard of a derecho? Here's what it did to the giant tulip poplar next to Claire and Peter's house. Somehow the tree fell uphill, sparing their house and landing on their neighbor's roof.

Hanging out at a playground sounded like a good idea, except for the 100-degree heat. Peter and Erin have the right idea.

 Milkshakes at the Jukebox Diner cheered everyone up.


 Superdad Peter can do it all.

 You had to keep your eyes on Baby Rowan

What's that?

Baby Rowan at the end of the line. Get ready to make room for one more.

Taking a break with Storyland Yoga - we highly recommend it

 What was supposed to be the eating corn became cow corn.

Thankfully none of the kids have figured out the link between this guy and...

... dinner. Certified Angus Prime bone-in ribeyes.

 The kids had their own private dining room. And so did the adults!
